This photo of my grandad was sent to his uncle (my great-great uncle) who was stationed in Cairo at the time. The fact that this photo travelled all the way from Manchester to Cairo and back, especially with my great-grandmother’s plea to take good care of it – now here I am, holding it in my hands over a hundred years later as proof that he did take care of it. It really moved me and has inspired me to try to share more of the photos and letters he received from family and friends.❤️
